	9:06pm Kat in Chicago: I am pleased to report that my radiators are hissing as we speak
	9:07pm anomalee: maybe i'm confused does GP have a side band called the Rumor?
	9:07pm prof.fuzz: @handy: We're doing OK. No loss of power or water at our house. Lots of dog snuggles too.

	9:11pm anomalee: i wonder if the Posies will be on the playlist.
	9:11pm Handy Haversack: Literalize Pumpy is a third-level spell! Hope you're warm, javakid!
	9:12pm efd: While The Rumour is in fact backing up Graham Parker on the Heat Treatment album the record was released under just his name.
	9:12pm javakid: Prof we have had power - no water since yesterday. actually got snow off the deck and into the toilet.
	9:12pm dano59: Thankfully this is a Glenn Frey-free zone?
	9:12pm Mr. Pumpy: I thought that was Future of the Left there for several seconds. Anyone?
	9:12pm Kat in Chicago: I got heat and lights and a f*ckton of snow outside. So I really can't complain but not sure when I'll be taking out the garbage or doing laundry next, the back stairs are impassable.
	9:13pm anomalee: i forgive Noel for the Heat of the Moment.
	9:13pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hello! Got the heater set to "Funk" over here.
	9:13pm anomalee: Ello KFHP.
	9:14pm prof.fuzz: Snow Flush would be a fun band name...
	9:14pm Kat in Chicago: That's a smart solution, javakid.
	9:14pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Ken! They revise downward your snow prediction? They did here.
	9:14pm javakid: @Kat - myy wife was mcgyver in a former life

	9:27pm efd: @Mike I've told you, you've gotta lay off the hard stuff!
	9:27pm JohnEBGood: Sounds like Kiss!!
	9:28pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, anomalee / Handy. Forecast says 2 - 5 inches tomorrow and an inch or so Friday. So I guess anywhere from 3 to 6 inches in Dutchess County.
	9:29pm Mr. Pumpy: prof.fuzz...as somewhat of an 'academic', I get it! Do what you can...of course. Loving the album.
	9:30pm On the Yazoo: Hey everyone.. I'm Snowed in, in Mississippi. But, I got power.
	9:30pm Mike Sin: @efd - ha! In this case "the hard stuff" = COVID haze.
	9:30pm slugluv1313: good evening, EFD and Skeletons and Funk Family! lurking while trying to get stuff done, thank you for the HOT tunes! turns out the boiler/furnace/whole freaking heating system is busted and has to be replaced (had heat for a LITTLE bit on Saturday) -- oh joy! and this "may take a few days" (which may not even be legal according to NJ tenant laws?? gotta make some phone calls tomorrow) ok gotta get back to work -- but i will be listening and digging :) STAY WARM everyone!!!
	9:31pm efd: oh shit Mike, I was not aware! Glad you're doing better!
	9:32pm Handy Haversack: Oooof, slugluv, good luck, friend! Make some noise about it! Glad you have power, On the Yazoo. Mr. P: literally!
	9:32pm AnvilCloud: Thanks for thawing us out here in TX sir!
	9:32pm slugluv1313: @Mike Sin -- aww man i had no idea -- sending HEALING VIBES
	9:33pm prof.fuzz: Thanks Mr P. Glad you're diggin' Owls. It's more accessible than my research (translating a 4th century Chinese local history)...
	9:34pm slugluv1313: @Handy -- thanks! yeah apparently the power outage screwed up the system -- and the boiler has a leak :(
	9:34pm Handy Haversack: prof.fuzz, I work in scholarly publishing for a place that does a lot of Chinese in translation ... if you ever want an intro to that editor. Crap, Mike Sin -- hope you are trending upward!
	9:34pm Kat in Chicago: Glad you are on the mend, Mike Sin! Hang in there slugluv, hope those calls help.
	9:35pm Kat in Chicago: The Accu-ish-playlist
	9:35pm Chop Scott: Studio EFD sounding great!
	9:36pm prof.fuzz: Handy: Thanks. Just sent you a message request.
	9:36pm Steve from Dunwoody: Oh, efd played Heat Treatment, while the world is burning! Yeah!
	9:36pm Steve from Dunwoody: or is it turning?!
	9:37pm anomalee: or tuning in?
	9:37pm slugluv1313: @JohnEBGood -- YES! Texas got hit so hard, i hope everyone there is okay Mariano is in NOLA, it has been colder there than here in NYC area, YIKES!
	9:38pm Mr. Pumpy: slug! NO!!! As a former landlord I can understand. I knew what it took to get a job done, but I always put my tenants first. Some delays are inevitable, and I hope that is all you are dealing with. Either way...it is not enjoyable, I KNOW! Aside from that...Shit Landlords Be Damned!!! I hope you have a good one.
	9:39pm Mr. Pumpy: I realize it may also be the utility company. They often blow donkey dongs. Just sayin'...
	9:39pm slugluv1313: @Kat in Chicago -- thanks! yes, normally my radiators would be merrily hissing too right now :)
	9:39pm Chop Scott: @Mike Sin: glad you are reporting better!
	9:40pm Kat in Chicago: The more I read the comments tonight, the more grateful I am to be merely mildly inconvenienced by the current conditions. I feel for y'all.
	9:46pm Handy Haversack: For reals, Kat. It's rough times out there. Sending warm thoughts to the WFMUamily.
	9:47pm wenzo llc.: good show mr. funk
	9:47pm SeanG: loving the kiwi jr. lately looking forward to that march 3 show does clay pigeon know about that show
	9:49pm anomalee: any indie band that is on sub pop label is a friend to me.
	9:49pm Kat in Chicago: O wow, I didn't notice the upcoming guests till now. Looking good.
	9:49pm javakid: so many out there suffering. our home has been inconvenienced and as long as we get water back in, say, the next couple days that's where in ends. hopefully no busted pipes which is a concern and a tree bathed in ice that is hanging over our roof. stuck at home and the store shelves cleaned feels very much like mid March 2020....
	9:50pm mariano: Hey efd, everyone.
	9:50pm Kat in Chicago: mariano! we've been looking for you. how goes it?
	9:51pm anomalee: mariano is in da house. all hail the goth king of NOLA.
	9:52pm slugluv1313: Mr. Pumpy!!! thanks so much! yeah, my building -- all condos now, except for my next door neighbor (who is even older than me, but did not move here until 1987) -- turns out our apartments are both rent controlled (i did not know that when i rented the place in 1982! and yeah, surely my original landlord would have caught this BEFORE anything happened -- old-school Yugoslavian dude, was in the building practically every day, working on stuff -- anyway, he sold the building in 2007, and that is when i found out that my neighbor and i are protected by the rent control laws) thank you for being a decent landlord!!! now all i deal with is some "management company" -- thankfully i have two space heaters from when the boiler broke down some years ago (or when Sandy hit and flooded the whole basement?) -- but that building management company gave EVERYONE in the building two space heaters! (this company said "you may want to get a space heater") and yeah, i gotta check out the regulations! kinda rusty, but iirc -- units have to be 68º during the day, 65º at night
	9:52pm JohnEBGood: I lived in Denver for 10 years and it was not uncommon to be 10 degrees below zero. But it could be 70 in 2 days! We've all heard about Texas tornados and Texas floods. This is Texas Freeze.
	9:53pm slugluv1313: hiya mariano! hope all is okay and WARMER in New Orleans!
	9:53pm anomalee: Partridge Family on an acid binge.
	9:54pm Aitch: Gonna get stabby if he keeps that up
	9:54pm Kat in Chicago: that sounds right, slugluv, I believe those are the apartment temp laws here too
	9:54pm mariano: Hey, Kat, anomalee. My my, goth king... some pretty stiff competition in that field in this town, lol. All good here, was in lurk mode for a couple of weeks due to being buried under a mountain of work. Hope all's well with y'all. Heya slugluv, Handy, Mr. Pumpy!
	9:55pm slugluv1313: @Aitch -- oooooo STABBY!!! GOOOOD!!! buahahahahaha!
	9:55pm anomalee: yeah anne rice still haunts NOLA too.
	9:56pm JohnEBGood: I always wear a hole in my pants : )
	9:57pm Kat in Chicago: I just noticed our pumpkin icons are gone. Marathon approacheth.
	9:58pm slugluv1313: @Kat -- thanks! yeah, my last year in college -- got a crash course in landlord/tenants rights and laws in NJ, and have tried to stay up to date ever since -- has helped for friends, at some jobs, etc.
	9:58pm SeanG: marathon a-comin'
	9:59pm anomalee: does anybody own this Television Personalities comp on cd or vinyl? if so, how is it?
	10:00pm mariano: Don't you mean the twa-lette, efd? [monocle falls out]
	10:00pm Kat in Chicago: LE POISSON ROUGE! Based on my two years of Duolingo French I think "flying taxi" is correct
	10:00pm ultradamno: I'd be interested in the Jad Fair track. That version of LGI seemed oblivious to the meaning of the lyrics.
	10:01pm anomalee: thanx for the referral EFD.
	10:01pm Kat in Chicago: sissy-er-EE-gah, which I only know because I was briefly acquainted with his sister.
	10:02pm HyperDose: But who is this Neil Cicierega, and does he know where the beef is?
	10:02pm Mr. Pumpy: slug...that is complete bullshit! My heart is with you as you deal with that. It is unfortunate that this is the type of shadowy shite that many have to deal with in this country while being tenants of those that supposedly do the correct thing by others. Damn shame, my friend. I wish I lived nearby. I'd either set someone straight...or hang out and comfort you! Ha! Not sure how I'd be at the prior. I think good!!!
	10:09pm Mr. Pumpy: Hey, mariano! @slug...it seems it was a particularly fucked up sich. I'm sorry about that/this.
	10:09pm efd: @Kat thx for the pronunciation info!
	10:09pm mariano: Oh no, slugluv! Just catching up on the posts, so sorry to hear about your troubles with the heat. Sounds like the only thing they might listen to is a rent strike, that usually gets their attention.
	10:09pm PortsmouthJay: Great Orange Peels tune! I like the string arrangements, too.
	10:12pm pgalub: Always nice to hear some- Tchaikovsky!
	10:12pm efd: @PortsmouthJay I agree! Hot off the press, too!
	10:12pm javakid: Airport 77s cover as promised - which is solid - but loved the original we heard last week (or 2 weeks ago - I forget).
	10:13pm slugluv1313: thanks, Mr. Pumpy! yeah, i gotta do some research, make some phone calls tomorrow -- luckily though, there are enough of the condo owners here (some have been staying elsewhere during COVID) who will NOT put up with a lack of heat buahahahahaha . . . so i am guessing they are giving the building management hell too!
	10:15pm Phillippe Bastille: Hey everyone! Handy, did you turn back north after your pierogi delivery? Cuz I’m still waiting for mine!
	10:15pm anomalee: at least it is not NYCHA. bad bad scene.
	10:15pm JohnEBGood: EFD in Oaktown shouting out Hudson County. Cool : )
	10:16pm efd: Oaktown?
	10:17pm slugluv1313: @mariano -- thanks! yeah, have done the rent strike thing before (the previously mentioned last-year-in-college) -- too soon for that, but i DO want to check with City Hall, etc. has it gotten warmer in New Orleans?
	10:17pm anomalee: watching YES Network now while multitasking on the feed. LGY.
	10:18pm JohnEBGood: Are you in Oakland Evan?
	10:20pm efd: nope, I'm in the north by northeast corner of Middlesex County NJ
	10:20pm efd: Billy Jam is our Oakland correspondent
	10:20pm patrick321: That was a good take on girl of my dreams tho my inner ear couldn't not hear where it's "supposed to go" I liked the orange peels thing too!
	10:21pm anomalee: @mariano what is the temperature now down south in NOLA?
	10:22pm mariano: slugluv/anomalee: It was in the mid-50s today, but another cold front is coming through, though not as bad as this last one. Highs in the 40s tomorrow and Friday then rising gradually. Sunday it's going up to the 60s though, so not as bad as other parts of the country.
	10:23pm anomalee: it is 25 degrees now in the hudson valley.
	10:23pm mariano: anomalee: One of my good friends in Brooklyn worked for NYCHA for 13 years, he told me some real horror stories.
	10:24pm Barney Grubbs: Acrylics remind me a little of Modern Medicine but different in a good way
	10:24pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Mariano! Alas, Phillippe, the cold was too much, and we recrossed the North and East Rivers, leaving the South for another jaunt! Scott W., if you see this, I figured the choice of soups was yours -- mushroom or pickle!
	10:25pm JohnEBGood: My bad. You by Pseu and Jonesy. You all legends.
	10:25pm anomalee: i bet there are some ghost stories in the NYCHA buildings.
	10:26pm Handy Haversack: PS, Mariano, that "War Girls" was great -- what a thrill!
	10:26pm ultradamno: That (used to a song being a certain way) is pretty much my thing with the La Grand Illusion cover, I think
	10:26pm Phillippe Bastille: 28 in Annapolis, 40s and 50s next week
	10:27pm javakid: remember these www.youtube.com...
	10:27pm slugluv1313: omg NYCHA -- horror stories indeed, ghosts of children decapitated by elevator doors (which happened more than once in a friend's building)
	10:28pm mariano: Handy: Oh yeah, that's right, while I was working I thought I heard Scott W saying that you and K8 took a care package over to FMU. Coupla menschen! And thanks, missed "War Girls" this morning, but gave a listen to the archive later, was pleasantly surprised that the mix held up. The other entries were amazing.
	10:28pm anomalee: remember when MTV actually aired music videos. what pop trash now except for Liam G.
	10:28pm ?: Hello everyone!
	10:29pm Kat in Chicago: mariano, "War Girls" was yours? that was awesome! I got to hear that before I had to go into training at work.
	10:30pm javakid: Translator, Romeo Void - looking forward
	10:31pm mariano: Thanks, Kat! Ken uses one of my email handles (Topcliffe) though he knows it's me.
	10:31pm Dave Miss: Midnight at the oasis?!
	10:31pm pp: love Howie Klein ... he can talk anyone's ear off.
	10:32pm ultradamno: Put your camel to bed...which is a pretty big job if it doesn't want to be tucked in.
	10:32pm mariano: Hey, Phillippe!
	10:33pm Scott Williams: Wowwww, I just saw Swivs' EFD IG post - JEALOUS!
	10:33pm Mr. Pumpy: I spent the past three hours (decades) hanging with pops (at my request being he needs to get out of his room), drinking seltzer having cocktails, watching Doctor Martin, and then clicking and cocktailing along to WoofMoo while responding to his usual accusations. It was not bad. I love dad, and I love WFMU. I began to write with envy in my heart, but here I am, taking care of pops and getting to hang out with you lot. Cheers! If this confuses anyone, I assure yo that I am more confused. I am confused, and confusing.
	10:34pm Aitch: Homer J Mandrill, The Purple Better One?
	10:34pm anomalee: adore DM & Martin Gore. is this dark enough for u @ mariano?
	10:39pm Phillippe Bastille: You’re a good son, Mr. P. My mom has that tell-the-whole-story thing going on, even when I interject “I remember you telling me that” halfway through
	10:44pm slugluv1313: @Mr. Pumpy -- ahhh revel in the confusion! LOVE to your Dad, thanks for being there for him :)
	10:47pm mariano: What Phillippe said, Mr. P. anomalee: I guess, lol. I'm not particularly dark; I just dig this avatar. It's interesting to me how scary an image someone can make using just some black, white, and a bit of red (and a tiny bit of yellow for the teeth).
	10:50pm Bobnoss Dugnutt: This Jeff Huddson song is ridiculous. I love it.
	10:55pm Handy Haversack: You got this, Mr. P.
	10:57pm Scott67: Thanks for the fine funk Evan! Stay warm & safe my funky friends. ✌😎❤🌏🌞
	10:58pm ultradamno: Great Units track, is there no Roky on that comp? theseconddisc.com...
	11:01pm patrick321: Late to @Mr Pumpy my dad (89) loves Doctor Martin too, though with his hearing loss I don't think he can really process everything that's being said. Somehow he connects with it. Cheers to you both.
	11:02pm Scott67: Hey I sad bye too soon! Another hour, awesome!
	11:02pm Scott67: Said*
	11:03pm Handy Haversack: In the future, time has lost all meaning!
	11:03pm efd: and here I thought you had to go somewhere, @Scott67! You've got a lot of time zones to keep track of, no worries!
	11:03pm Scott67: Handy, it certainly has for me cobber! 👍😎
	11:04pm mariano: Hey, Scott67!
	11:04pm efd: @ultradamno, nope, no Roky on it.
	11:05pm ultradamno: Maybe they lost the rights.
	11:05pm Scott67: Just got off phone to Mum, that makes time stretch. 😊
	11:06pm efd: yeah, that would be my guess
	11:06pm Scott67: G'day Madge! Warming up in N'Orleans?
	11:06pm anomalee: i once was a dead scarecrow for Halloween. my dad refused to talk to me. Thanks for clarity @mariano.
	11:09pm anomalee: i didn't' mean to stereotype. much love from the ufo friendly Hudson Valley.
	11:12pm Stevel: If anyone asks, I might have been here. Act natural.
	11:12pm Scott Williams: Whoah, haven't heard Had Enough in decades! EFD and Ira the K giving air to the Ox this week.
	11:12pm Earl City: Nice.
	11:12pm Aitch: Who Are You was always in the 1 dollar bin.
	11:14pm anomalee: how nostalgic to hear late 70's the Who. most bands imploded by then.
	11:14pm mariano: Scott67: Slowly warming up, thankfully. Still hot as cojones in Oz? anomalee: If that post was meant for me, I didn't take it as stereotyping at all, lol. Perfectly natural to think "dark" when looking at such an avatar ;)
	11:14pm Handy Haversack: Mr. P, if you're here, this might be of interest: www.exaltedfuneral.com...
	11:16pm mariano: Handy: Wait, is that the same album/RPG from a discussion few months ago?
	11:16pm Ken From Hyde Park: Ox on bass. This is his year!
	11:16pm Handy Haversack: Another one, Mariano! It's like a movement or something!
	11:17pm ultradamno: Late 70s Who will always remind me of "I'd walk over you to see..." T-shirts.
	11:18pm Scott Williams: @ultradamno, do you remember that very special episode of WKRP in Cincinnati?
	11:19pm Scott67: Madge, 31c today. Then 33c & 36c next two days. But I'd rather sweat than shiver any day mate. 😎🤙☀️
	11:19pm ultradamno: Yep.
	11:20pm ultradamno: They went for a more sensitive approach (though that's a low bar)
	11:20pm Scott67: I thought it was for real Todd! ☺
	11:20pm Mr. Pumpy: Do it again!
	11:20pm Handy Haversack: Do you have AC, Scott? Is that common down there?
	11:21pm anomalee: thanx for understanding mariano. yes i think visuals are deceiving. i was into goth culture in my twenties. my friends were into the Cure, Type O Negative, Bauhaus, Peter Murphy, DM, NIN. etc etc.
	11:21pm ultradamno: Though the late 70s did also retain Stones, Kinks and Zep.
	11:21pm Aitch: Only the Kangaroos have AC here Handy.
	11:22pm ultradamno: Damn marsupials have had it to good for too long.
	11:22pm Handy Haversack: They think they're so cool!
	11:23pm Aitch: The rest of us just wave branches about
	11:24pm mariano: Scott67: When my friends and I were in South Australia last March, the weather was so perfect. Just sitting outside and feeling it was an event in itself.
	11:25pm Ken From Hyde Park: Tennis from Australia is on the telly here. Serena trying to come back in the second set.
	11:26pm Scott67: Handy, pretty common nowadays. But I don't have any, so a few hot days in a row will put the house only about 5c cooler than outside. But nights have been cooler so house is only 28c at the moment, We haven't had any many 40c+ days this year. So a cool Summer really. 😎☀️
	11:27pm MIr. Pumpy: SOCALLED LIVING
	11:28pm anomalee: it could be a so-called record label.
	11:29pm Scott67: Madge, it's lovely when the air feels like your second skin. So warm & welcoming.
	11:29pm efd: was also known as "the Weinstein Center for you-call-this-living?"
	11:30pm Hoboken Jack: Late hello EFD, Scott, HP Ken, Handy, Mariano, SteveL, PETE, Mike Sin, Gaylord, all! I saw Special Friend early last year at Berlin on a bill with Pale Lights. Really nice people and I did buy their album. Though being from France, I wish they'd played at... Le Poisson Rouge.
	11:31pm anomalee: freshman at a notorious college in Poughkeepsie had a curfew. i was a sophomore there. random fact duly noted.
	11:31pm efd: hello and welcome, Handsome Hoboken Jack!
	11:32pm Handy Haversack: Jack, it's pronounced Le Poisson Rouge. And hi!
	11:33pm MIr. Pumpy: seventy-eight revolutions
	11:33pm mariano: Hoboken Jack! anomalee: I love a lot of goth, death metal, and occult/esoteric-themed stuff, but I like so much other stuff too that I wouldn't make it or anything else a primary identification, except for maybe schlub.
	11:34pm Scott67: The Red Fish.
	11:35pm Ken From Hyde Park: Yo, Jack. We meet again!

The Evan "Funk" Davies Show: Playlist from February 17, 2021

View efd's profile

Every show starts with the ’70s! We’ll rediscover forgotten rockers, revisit unfairly maligned disco beats and replay power-pop favorites. Next: plenty of new releases, occasional live bands and more. Don’t let the nickname confuse you.

<-- Previous playlist | Back to The Evan "Funk" Davies Show playlists | Next playlist -->

Upcoming events:

Wed. Dec 4th, Noon - 3pm: Freaky Wilderness (More info...)
Brooklyn’s Freaky Wilderness includes members of Space Merchants, whose 2018 album landed in EFD’s top 10 of that year. They bring their heavy, fuzzy sound to the WFMU airwaves just days before the release of their debut album Immeasurable Heaven. They’ll preview the album in this live set ahead of the album release show on Thursday Dec. 12 at Main Drag in Brooklyn.
Wed. Dec 11th, Noon - 3pm: Manager (More info...)
Manager is a three-piece band that’s based right here in Jersey City. They recently released a new EP, HOT-LINE (Texacobra), which showcases their hard-edged percolating indie sound that may remind the listener of Echo & The Bunnymen or Yo La Tengo. Tune in to this live session and hear for yourself!

	9:12pm efd: While The Rumour is in fact backing up Graham Parker on the Heat Treatment album the record was released under just his name.
	9:12pm javakid: Prof we have had power - no water since yesterday. actually got snow off the deck and into the toilet.

	9:27pm JohnEBGood: Sounds like Kiss!!
	9:28pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, anomalee / Handy. Forecast says 2 - 5 inches tomorrow and an inch or so Friday. So I guess anywhere from 3 to 6 inches in Dutchess County.

	9:31pm efd: oh shit Mike, I was not aware! Glad you're doing better!
	9:32pm Handy Haversack: Oooof, slugluv, good luck, friend! Make some noise about it! Glad you have power, On the Yazoo. Mr. P: literally!

	9:32pm slugluv1313: @Mike Sin -- aww man i had no idea -- sending HEALING VIBES
	9:33pm prof.fuzz: Thanks Mr P. Glad you're diggin' Owls. It's more accessible than my research (translating a 4th century Chinese local history)...
	9:34pm slugluv1313: @Handy -- thanks! yeah apparently the power outage screwed up the system -- and the boiler has a leak :(
	9:34pm Handy Haversack: prof.fuzz, I work in scholarly publishing for a place that does a lot of Chinese in translation ... if you ever want an intro to that editor. Crap, Mike Sin -- hope you are trending upward!

	9:38pm Mr. Pumpy: slug! NO!!! As a former landlord I can understand. I knew what it took to get a job done, but I always put my tenants first. Some delays are inevitable, and I hope that is all you are dealing with. Either way...it is not enjoyable, I KNOW! Aside from that...Shit Landlords Be Damned!!! I hope you have a good one.
	9:39pm Mr. Pumpy: I realize it may also be the utility company. They often blow donkey dongs. Just sayin'...
	9:39pm slugluv1313: @Kat in Chicago -- thanks! yes, normally my radiators would be merrily hissing too right now :)
	9:39pm Chop Scott: @Mike Sin: glad you are reporting better!
	9:40pm Kat in Chicago: The more I read the comments tonight, the more grateful I am to be merely mildly inconvenienced by the current conditions. I feel for y'all.
	9:46pm Handy Haversack: For reals, Kat. It's rough times out there. Sending warm thoughts to the WFMUamily.
	9:47pm wenzo llc.: good show mr. funk
	9:47pm SeanG: loving the kiwi jr. lately looking forward to that march 3 show does clay pigeon know about that show
	9:49pm anomalee: any indie band that is on sub pop label is a friend to me.
	9:49pm Kat in Chicago: O wow, I didn't notice the upcoming guests till now. Looking good.
	9:49pm javakid: so many out there suffering. our home has been inconvenienced and as long as we get water back in, say, the next couple days that's where in ends. hopefully no busted pipes which is a concern and a tree bathed in ice that is hanging over our roof. stuck at home and the store shelves cleaned feels very much like mid March 2020....
	9:50pm mariano: Hey efd, everyone.
	9:50pm Kat in Chicago: mariano! we've been looking for you. how goes it?
	9:51pm anomalee: mariano is in da house. all hail the goth king of NOLA.
	9:52pm slugluv1313: Mr. Pumpy!!! thanks so much! yeah, my building -- all condos now, except for my next door neighbor (who is even older than me, but did not move here until 1987) -- turns out our apartments are both rent controlled (i did not know that when i rented the place in 1982! and yeah, surely my original landlord would have caught this BEFORE anything happened -- old-school Yugoslavian dude, was in the building practically every day, working on stuff -- anyway, he sold the building in 2007, and that is when i found out that my neighbor and i are protected by the rent control laws) thank you for being a decent landlord!!! now all i deal with is some "management company" -- thankfully i have two space heaters from when the boiler broke down some years ago (or when Sandy hit and flooded the whole basement?) -- but that building management company gave EVERYONE in the building two space heaters! (this company said "you may want to get a space heater") and yeah, i gotta check out the regulations! kinda rusty, but iirc -- units have to be 68º during the day, 65º at night
	9:52pm JohnEBGood: I lived in Denver for 10 years and it was not uncommon to be 10 degrees below zero. But it could be 70 in 2 days! We've all heard about Texas tornados and Texas floods. This is Texas Freeze.
	9:53pm slugluv1313: hiya mariano! hope all is okay and WARMER in New Orleans!
	9:53pm anomalee: Partridge Family on an acid binge.
	9:54pm Aitch: Gonna get stabby if he keeps that up
	9:54pm Kat in Chicago: that sounds right, slugluv, I believe those are the apartment temp laws here too
	9:54pm mariano: Hey, Kat, anomalee. My my, goth king... some pretty stiff competition in that field in this town, lol. All good here, was in lurk mode for a couple of weeks due to being buried under a mountain of work. Hope all's well with y'all. Heya slugluv, Handy, Mr. Pumpy!
	9:55pm slugluv1313: @Aitch -- oooooo STABBY!!! GOOOOD!!! buahahahahaha!
	9:55pm anomalee: yeah anne rice still haunts NOLA too.
	9:56pm JohnEBGood: I always wear a hole in my pants : )
	9:57pm Kat in Chicago: I just noticed our pumpkin icons are gone. Marathon approacheth.
	9:58pm slugluv1313: @Kat -- thanks! yeah, my last year in college -- got a crash course in landlord/tenants rights and laws in NJ, and have tried to stay up to date ever since -- has helped for friends, at some jobs, etc.
	9:58pm SeanG: marathon a-comin'
	9:59pm anomalee: does anybody own this Television Personalities comp on cd or vinyl? if so, how is it?
	10:00pm mariano: Don't you mean the twa-lette, efd? [monocle falls out]
	10:00pm Kat in Chicago: LE POISSON ROUGE! Based on my two years of Duolingo French I think "flying taxi" is correct
	10:00pm ultradamno: I'd be interested in the Jad Fair track. That version of LGI seemed oblivious to the meaning of the lyrics.
	10:01pm anomalee: thanx for the referral EFD.
	10:01pm Kat in Chicago: sissy-er-EE-gah, which I only know because I was briefly acquainted with his sister.
	10:02pm HyperDose: But who is this Neil Cicierega, and does he know where the beef is?
	10:02pm Mr. Pumpy: slug...that is complete bullshit! My heart is with you as you deal with that. It is unfortunate that this is the type of shadowy shite that many have to deal with in this country while being tenants of those that supposedly do the correct thing by others. Damn shame, my friend. I wish I lived nearby. I'd either set someone straight...or hang out and comfort you! Ha! Not sure how I'd be at the prior. I think good!!!
	10:09pm Mr. Pumpy: Hey, mariano! @slug...it seems it was a particularly fucked up sich. I'm sorry about that/this.
	10:09pm efd: @Kat thx for the pronunciation info!
	10:09pm mariano: Oh no, slugluv! Just catching up on the posts, so sorry to hear about your troubles with the heat. Sounds like the only thing they might listen to is a rent strike, that usually gets their attention.
	10:09pm PortsmouthJay: Great Orange Peels tune! I like the string arrangements, too.
	10:12pm pgalub: Always nice to hear some- Tchaikovsky!
	10:12pm efd: @PortsmouthJay I agree! Hot off the press, too!
	10:12pm javakid: Airport 77s cover as promised - which is solid - but loved the original we heard last week (or 2 weeks ago - I forget).
	10:13pm slugluv1313: thanks, Mr. Pumpy! yeah, i gotta do some research, make some phone calls tomorrow -- luckily though, there are enough of the condo owners here (some have been staying elsewhere during COVID) who will NOT put up with a lack of heat buahahahahaha . . . so i am guessing they are giving the building management hell too!
	10:15pm Phillippe Bastille: Hey everyone! Handy, did you turn back north after your pierogi delivery? Cuz I’m still waiting for mine!
	10:15pm anomalee: at least it is not NYCHA. bad bad scene.
	10:15pm JohnEBGood: EFD in Oaktown shouting out Hudson County. Cool : )
	10:16pm efd: Oaktown?
	10:17pm slugluv1313: @mariano -- thanks! yeah, have done the rent strike thing before (the previously mentioned last-year-in-college) -- too soon for that, but i DO want to check with City Hall, etc. has it gotten warmer in New Orleans?
	10:17pm anomalee: watching YES Network now while multitasking on the feed. LGY.
	10:18pm JohnEBGood: Are you in Oakland Evan?
	10:20pm efd: nope, I'm in the north by northeast corner of Middlesex County NJ
	10:20pm efd: Billy Jam is our Oakland correspondent
	10:20pm patrick321: That was a good take on girl of my dreams tho my inner ear couldn't not hear where it's "supposed to go" I liked the orange peels thing too!
	10:21pm anomalee: @mariano what is the temperature now down south in NOLA?
	10:22pm mariano: slugluv/anomalee: It was in the mid-50s today, but another cold front is coming through, though not as bad as this last one. Highs in the 40s tomorrow and Friday then rising gradually. Sunday it's going up to the 60s though, so not as bad as other parts of the country.
	10:23pm anomalee: it is 25 degrees now in the hudson valley.
	10:23pm mariano: anomalee: One of my good friends in Brooklyn worked for NYCHA for 13 years, he told me some real horror stories.
	10:24pm Barney Grubbs: Acrylics remind me a little of Modern Medicine but different in a good way
	10:24pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Mariano! Alas, Phillippe, the cold was too much, and we recrossed the North and East Rivers, leaving the South for another jaunt! Scott W., if you see this, I figured the choice of soups was yours -- mushroom or pickle!
	10:25pm JohnEBGood: My bad. You by Pseu and Jonesy. You all legends.
	10:25pm anomalee: i bet there are some ghost stories in the NYCHA buildings.
	10:26pm Handy Haversack: PS, Mariano, that "War Girls" was great -- what a thrill!
	10:26pm ultradamno: That (used to a song being a certain way) is pretty much my thing with the La Grand Illusion cover, I think
	10:26pm Phillippe Bastille: 28 in Annapolis, 40s and 50s next week
	10:27pm javakid: remember these www.youtube.com...
	10:27pm slugluv1313: omg NYCHA -- horror stories indeed, ghosts of children decapitated by elevator doors (which happened more than once in a friend's building)
	10:28pm mariano: Handy: Oh yeah, that's right, while I was working I thought I heard Scott W saying that you and K8 took a care package over to FMU. Coupla menschen! And thanks, missed "War Girls" this morning, but gave a listen to the archive later, was pleasantly surprised that the mix held up. The other entries were amazing.
	10:28pm anomalee: remember when MTV actually aired music videos. what pop trash now except for Liam G.
	10:28pm ?: Hello everyone!
	10:29pm Kat in Chicago: mariano, "War Girls" was yours? that was awesome! I got to hear that before I had to go into training at work.
	10:30pm javakid: Translator, Romeo Void - looking forward
	10:31pm mariano: Thanks, Kat! Ken uses one of my email handles (Topcliffe) though he knows it's me.
	10:31pm Dave Miss: Midnight at the oasis?!
	10:31pm pp: love Howie Klein ... he can talk anyone's ear off.
	10:32pm ultradamno: Put your camel to bed...which is a pretty big job if it doesn't want to be tucked in.
	10:32pm mariano: Hey, Phillippe!
	10:33pm Scott Williams: Wowwww, I just saw Swivs' EFD IG post - JEALOUS!
	10:33pm Mr. Pumpy: I spent the past three hours (decades) hanging with pops (at my request being he needs to get out of his room), drinking seltzer having cocktails, watching Doctor Martin, and then clicking and cocktailing along to WoofMoo while responding to his usual accusations. It was not bad. I love dad, and I love WFMU. I began to write with envy in my heart, but here I am, taking care of pops and getting to hang out with you lot. Cheers! If this confuses anyone, I assure yo that I am more confused. I am confused, and confusing.
	10:34pm Aitch: Homer J Mandrill, The Purple Better One?
	10:34pm anomalee: adore DM & Martin Gore. is this dark enough for u @ mariano?
	10:39pm Phillippe Bastille: You’re a good son, Mr. P. My mom has that tell-the-whole-story thing going on, even when I interject “I remember you telling me that” halfway through
	10:44pm slugluv1313: @Mr. Pumpy -- ahhh revel in the confusion! LOVE to your Dad, thanks for being there for him :)
	10:47pm mariano: What Phillippe said, Mr. P. anomalee: I guess, lol. I'm not particularly dark; I just dig this avatar. It's interesting to me how scary an image someone can make using just some black, white, and a bit of red (and a tiny bit of yellow for the teeth).
	10:50pm Bobnoss Dugnutt: This Jeff Huddson song is ridiculous. I love it.
	10:55pm Handy Haversack: You got this, Mr. P.
	10:57pm Scott67: Thanks for the fine funk Evan! Stay warm & safe my funky friends. ✌😎❤🌏🌞
	10:58pm ultradamno: Great Units track, is there no Roky on that comp? theseconddisc.com...
	11:01pm patrick321: Late to @Mr Pumpy my dad (89) loves Doctor Martin too, though with his hearing loss I don't think he can really process everything that's being said. Somehow he connects with it. Cheers to you both.
	11:02pm Scott67: Hey I sad bye too soon! Another hour, awesome!
	11:02pm Scott67: Said*
	11:03pm Handy Haversack: In the future, time has lost all meaning!
	11:03pm efd: and here I thought you had to go somewhere, @Scott67! You've got a lot of time zones to keep track of, no worries!
	11:03pm Scott67: Handy, it certainly has for me cobber! 👍😎
	11:04pm mariano: Hey, Scott67!
	11:04pm efd: @ultradamno, nope, no Roky on it.
	11:05pm ultradamno: Maybe they lost the rights.
	11:05pm Scott67: Just got off phone to Mum, that makes time stretch. 😊
	11:06pm efd: yeah, that would be my guess
	11:06pm Scott67: G'day Madge! Warming up in N'Orleans?
	11:06pm anomalee: i once was a dead scarecrow for Halloween. my dad refused to talk to me. Thanks for clarity @mariano.
	11:09pm anomalee: i didn't' mean to stereotype. much love from the ufo friendly Hudson Valley.
	11:12pm Stevel: If anyone asks, I might have been here. Act natural.
	11:12pm Scott Williams: Whoah, haven't heard Had Enough in decades! EFD and Ira the K giving air to the Ox this week.
	11:12pm Earl City: Nice.
	11:12pm Aitch: Who Are You was always in the 1 dollar bin.
	11:14pm anomalee: how nostalgic to hear late 70's the Who. most bands imploded by then.
	11:14pm mariano: Scott67: Slowly warming up, thankfully. Still hot as cojones in Oz? anomalee: If that post was meant for me, I didn't take it as stereotyping at all, lol. Perfectly natural to think "dark" when looking at such an avatar ;)
	11:14pm Handy Haversack: Mr. P, if you're here, this might be of interest: www.exaltedfuneral.com...
	11:16pm mariano: Handy: Wait, is that the same album/RPG from a discussion few months ago?
	11:16pm Ken From Hyde Park: Ox on bass. This is his year!
	11:16pm Handy Haversack: Another one, Mariano! It's like a movement or something!
	11:17pm ultradamno: Late 70s Who will always remind me of "I'd walk over you to see..." T-shirts.
	11:18pm Scott Williams: @ultradamno, do you remember that very special episode of WKRP in Cincinnati?
	11:19pm Scott67: Madge, 31c today. Then 33c & 36c next two days. But I'd rather sweat than shiver any day mate. 😎🤙☀️
	11:19pm ultradamno: Yep.
	11:20pm ultradamno: They went for a more sensitive approach (though that's a low bar)
	11:20pm Scott67: I thought it was for real Todd! ☺
	11:20pm Mr. Pumpy: Do it again!
	11:20pm Handy Haversack: Do you have AC, Scott? Is that common down there?
	11:21pm anomalee: thanx for understanding mariano. yes i think visuals are deceiving. i was into goth culture in my twenties. my friends were into the Cure, Type O Negative, Bauhaus, Peter Murphy, DM, NIN. etc etc.
	11:21pm ultradamno: Though the late 70s did also retain Stones, Kinks and Zep.
	11:21pm Aitch: Only the Kangaroos have AC here Handy.
	11:22pm ultradamno: Damn marsupials have had it to good for too long.
	11:22pm Handy Haversack: They think they're so cool!
	11:23pm Aitch: The rest of us just wave branches about
	11:24pm mariano: Scott67: When my friends and I were in South Australia last March, the weather was so perfect. Just sitting outside and feeling it was an event in itself.
	11:25pm Ken From Hyde Park: Tennis from Australia is on the telly here. Serena trying to come back in the second set.
	11:26pm Scott67: Handy, pretty common nowadays. But I don't have any, so a few hot days in a row will put the house only about 5c cooler than outside. But nights have been cooler so house is only 28c at the moment, We haven't had any many 40c+ days this year. So a cool Summer really. 😎☀️
	11:27pm MIr. Pumpy: SOCALLED LIVING
	11:28pm anomalee: it could be a so-called record label.
	11:29pm Scott67: Madge, it's lovely when the air feels like your second skin. So warm & welcoming.
	11:29pm efd: was also known as "the Weinstein Center for you-call-this-living?"
	11:30pm Hoboken Jack: Late hello EFD, Scott, HP Ken, Handy, Mariano, SteveL, PETE, Mike Sin, Gaylord, all! I saw Special Friend early last year at Berlin on a bill with Pale Lights. Really nice people and I did buy their album. Though being from France, I wish they'd played at... Le Poisson Rouge.
	11:31pm anomalee: freshman at a notorious college in Poughkeepsie had a curfew. i was a sophomore there. random fact duly noted.
	11:31pm efd: hello and welcome, Handsome Hoboken Jack!
	11:32pm Handy Haversack: Jack, it's pronounced Le Poisson Rouge. And hi!
	11:33pm MIr. Pumpy: seventy-eight revolutions
	11:33pm mariano: Hoboken Jack! anomalee: I love a lot of goth, death metal, and occult/esoteric-themed stuff, but I like so much other stuff too that I wouldn't make it or anything else a primary identification, except for maybe schlub.
	11:34pm Scott67: The Red Fish.
	11:35pm Ken From Hyde Park: Yo, Jack. We meet again!
	11:36pm anomalee: yeah i was introduced to the writings of Aleister Crowley in college. after that, Weird NJ took over. occult and supernatural.
	11:36pm Hoboken Jack: I won't ruin it for those who don't know, but can you suss out the indie legends in Swansea Sound?
	11:37pm Hoboken Jack: Ken, is Hyde Park in the path of this next snowfall?
	11:39pm Ken From Hyde Park: Just a little. Latest prediction is for six inches, I think. The glisteners can take it!
	11:42pm Handy Haversack: The Glisteners can take it. Though I hope Jason in Houston is doing OK. Anyone see him on the boards today?
	11:45pm Aitch: Never heard Telefones before, but 3 times today?
	11:47pm Scott67: Aitch, ditto!
	11:50pm anomalee: The Bongos were supposed to perform at Outpost on the Burbs.
	11:50pm Scott Williams: Telefones is fantastic, I never knew of em before! But I def knew of their trumpet player MC 900 Ft Jesus and bass player/FMU fave (and fan) Steve Dirkx. Supergroup!
	11:51pm efd: @anomalee Yes they were! And they were all in-studio on my show just about a year ago at this time.
	11:51pm efd: I probably should have mentioned that during the mic break.
	11:52pm efd: @Scott I heard you mention the Steve Dirkx connection earlier but did not realize they had MC 900 Ft Jesus on trumpet!
	11:52pm Chop Scott: Brother Scott--I love MC 900 Ft. Jesus!
	11:52pm Scott67: Melbourne boys! 😎
	11:52pm anomalee: Thanks EFD and skeleton crew for all the memories tonight. Much love to everybody. Be safe and live better.
	11:53pm Handy Haversack: How come midnight comes up so fast on Wednesdays? Shouldn't some sort of Time Commission look into this? Thanks, efd! Great stuff as always, and more grist for the Bandcamp Friday mill, which we basically call the efd grinder at this point! Sceleton Scott, enjoy that shot, and I hope the mushroom and/or pickle soup was delicious! Thanks for all, and it was so wonderful to see you today! Be well, funksters. Stay warm. Or cool. Whichever brings safety and happiness.
	11:53pm efd: thanks anomalee! @Scott67, Indeed!
	11:54pm prof.fuzz: Thanks EFD and everyone, especially for the warm wishes! Stay well. Stay warm.
	11:55pm Hoboken Jack: In Special Friend, he's French, she's I think from Montreal? And they live in Paris.
	11:56pm radioronan: Thanks Evan..thanks skeletons!

	11:57pm Scott Williams: EFD & Brother Chop, a listener revealed the MC 900 Ft Jesus bomb (Scott, I'm also a fan). Also connections to Bobby Soxx and Stickmen with Rayguns, 80s Dallas.
	11:57pm Ken From Hyde Park: I like the video of "If I Only Had a Brain" by MC 900 Ft Jesus. youtu.be... Thanks, efd and skeleton key Scott.
	11:57pm efd: thanks for listening everyone! Wishing you dull weather asap.
